Foundations

What do scientific excavations in Afghanistan, the study of reproductive efficiency in chickens and the experimental development of photonic chips have in common?

They all owe much to our foundations, established by the Senate to ‘bridge the gap’ between the University, industry and professions to achieve world-class results in a wide variety of fields.

Foundations work in close association with faculties to provide support for teaching and research. Sometimes, they are specifically aligned with departments or research centres.

The support of foundations has become a crucial element in fostering new initiatives at the University and this assistance will continue to be important in a time of decreasing government funding for the university sector.

Current foundations include:

College of Health Sciences

College of Humanities and Social Sciences

College of Sciences and Technology

Academic and International
